Taking up the most of the steel reserves in Rumania, the Godebva is now being constructed and will take about 5 more RL days because production will be pushed to its limits. The Godebva will be one of the a kind, in the Rumanian Navy anyways. Rumania will think about selling production rights to other nations.

Distribution of weights at normal displacement:
Armament: 3,064 tons, 11.6 %
Armour: 11,372 tons, 43.2 %
- Belts: 4,938 tons, 18.8 %
- Torpedo bulkhead: 2,507 tons, 9.5 %
- Armament: 919 tons, 3.5 %
- Armour Deck: 2,970 tons, 11.3 %

Hull, fittings & equipment: 5,507 tons, 20.9 %
Fuel, ammunition & stores: 5,117 tons, 19.5 %
Miscellaneous weights: 200 tons, 0.8 %
Overall survivability and seakeeping ability:
Seaboat quality (Average = 1.00): 1.43
Hull form characteristics:
Hull has a flush deck
Block coefficient: 0.649
Length to Beam Ratio: 8.32 : 1
